“Jessica was so fantastic to work with and so great with our two dogs. She was very communicative on our drop in visits, perfectly on-time, and really wonderful with the dogs. Can’t wait to work with her again”
“Sarah was great with our cat Cedar. She took good care of our timid cat and followed our directions perfectly. She is super nice and friendly, as well. Will definitely book with her again!”
“Sara is an outstanding find! I almost didn’t want to leave this review because I didn’t want other people to take her away from my sweet babies! She is incredibly kind and goes above and beyond. She leaves detailed information about each visit and share so many excellent photos so that we know our dogs are being very well cared for. We are so lucky to have her take care of our two dogs.”
“This is the second time Briana has looked after our cats and it’s such a relief to travel knowing our cats are in good hands. We’ve been very impressed by her professionalism and responsiveness.”
“Brittany took wonderful care of our cat while we were out of town. He was happy to see us when we returned, but he didn't seem anxious or stressed at all about us having left. I owe this to Brittany giving him the attention he needed to feel comfortable and secure while we were away. She is awesome!”
“Chelsea was so awesome! We were so happy she was able to fit us in on a busy holiday weekend. She was very communicative and kept us updated about how everything went during her visit. It was clear the cats loved her after seeing the photos she sent; even our very timid cat who hides from other people. We could tell she takes the job seriously and is experienced with pets. Will definitely be booking her again!”
“Gianna was super communicative and attentive, she did a great job taking care of our nervous puppy and making sure he had the best experience for his first Rover visit. She was also so thoughtful about small details, like cleaning his Kong toy and bringing in packages, which goes such a long way :) will book again!”
“Mouse had a fantastic time with Rachel — he was treated like the tiny prince that he is. He spent time with her hanging out in the sun on the deck, exploring the backyard, and making himself comfortable on her lap. When it was time for her to leave he didn’t want to budge from her lap, and he doesn’t warm up to people easily like that! She sent plenty of pics and updated me on his activities. I’ll happily book Rachel again anytime!”
“Lori was the best. This is my second time asking Lori to take care of my cat. She is always on schedule and also will send you tons of photos of your pets. I wasn’t worried one bit while I was out of country.”
“Nat was pretty great in taking care of my babies. She was also very accommodating when my flight got canceled, so I needed her for an extra day. I will use her again.”
“Jackie was excellent caring for my elderly cat with required medications. She provided great photos and kept me updated each time she visited. Thank you!”
“Auntie Trish has been a life saver for our family! She is accommodating, responsive and always happy to spend time with our pups. One of our dogs is reactive and can be super slow to take to new people and she was his best friend by the end of our first meeting. Highly recommend Tricia!!”
“Daniel was an excellent drop-in visitor and playmate for our cat Georgie. We really appreciated his friendliness, prompt communication, and genuine affection for our cat. Bonus points for his availability short notice during holiday season as well! We’d definitely recommend Daniel.”

Southborough cat parents share their Rover experiences
My kitties have never been cared for as well as Miriam cared for them. She truly interacts with them and delights in their antics. She also took exceptional care of their necessities as well as going above and beyond keeping things clean. She sent detailed pictures and comments every visit. I think my cats were disappointed it wasn’t Miriam when we walked through the door. Have already booked her for our next trip.
Julia did a fantastic job taking care of my two cats. She was incredibly thoughtful, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure the cats (and our home!) were comfortable and clean. She took initiative to adjust the A/C and fans to keep the space comfortable, cleaned up not just the food dishes and litter boxes, but also a surprise hairball, and even swept the floor. Her updates were thorough and reassuring, with sweet touches like hiding toys and checking in on how much each cat ate—she clearly paid close attention to their individual personalities and needs. Julia was communicative, responsible, and kind—and her love for cats really shows. I'm so grateful this was our first experience with her and would absolutely recommend her to others!
